That was awesome! Man what
a book! This is an extraordinary story. It is so completely well written and thought
through. I could not put it down. I found myself reading it straight through in
one sitting. This is the 3rd book in the series if you have not read the first
2 books do not worry these books can be read as a standalone. But this review
may give away some spoilers as there is a back story in the book. And it
mentions others from the first few books. I so cannot wait to read the next
book This is JP and Molly’s story. Molly is Stephanie’s friends from the last
book. JP Watson and Molly while trying to find the restroom after a night out
with Ace and Stephanie. Is a matter of a few moments so he’s able to bring more
out of the shy girl that anyone else has ever been able to. One night after
party when he discovers her artwork he is floored by the design she has come up
with. And he shows it to the record label in hopes of hiring her. It seems
progressed and they become close it seems like everything’s going to be fine seriously seems to be able to draw the shy girl out of her cocoon. But
unfortunately JP is hiding a secret and it is a secret that eventually throws
things all cattywampus. JP has problem that he has been hiding all of his life,
he’s been taught to hide it did it just may be the thing that ruins what he and
Molly have. I just hope he figures out in time how to see the relationship he
has with Molly. Now before I ruin this for you I will leave off here. I hope
you enjoy this book as much as I did. If you do like this book, please consider

opinions too.

“Ace!” I shout, to where he’s walking ahead of me with
his arm around Stéphanie. “I really have to piss!”

​

He looks back over his shoulder, tilting his head down
so he can glare at me over the top of his Ray-Bans. I too am wearing Ray-Bans,
only Ace’s came from the Ray-Ban store, and I got mine out of a bargain bin at
a thrift shop. That’s also where I got the muscle shirt I’m wearing, which has
a picture of some eight pack abs printed on the front.

​

When I walked into the park today, Ace said I was an
embarrassment to the human race. I, on the other hand, like to think that the
human race is lucky to have me, and this stylish and hilarious shirt is just
one of the many reasons why.

​

Perspective, my friends. It’s all in the perspective.

​

“How is that relevant to my life right now?” Ace calls
back to me.

​

I stop and think about that for a moment, then shout,
“Stéphanie! I really have to piss!”

​

She stops walking, forcing Ace to stop too. When she
turns around, she’s laughing and shaking her head. I have that effect on most
women.

​

“Is that relevant to my life, JP?”
she asks, beaming at me.

​

She beams at most things. She’s like a human
flashlight, this girl. The last person any of us expected Ace to get it on with
was a smiley blonde ballet teacher with a thing for meditation, but almost a
year has passed now, and the moody son of a bitch is still prancing around
after her like she’s the reason the sun shines.

Stéphanie is Québécois like me, but even though Ace
can understand us perfectly—fuck, his French grammar is better than mine—she
still answers my request to use her bathroom in English. We’re only a block
away from her apartment building now.

​

“Of course. Just don’t break anything, okay?”

​

I put a hand to my chest. “Madame! Are you saying you
don’t trust me?”

​

Ace throws me some more shade over his sunglasses.
“You broke Youssef’s showerhead at his birthday party last week, when you
decided to present him with the gift of a ‘sexy shower show’ at two in the
morning.” He looks at Stéphanie and whispers, “Don’t let him in.”

putting it down. This is the 3rd book in the series if you have not
read the first few books do not worry these books can be read as a standalone.
But this review may give away some spoilers as there is a back story in the
book. And it mentions others from the first few books. I so cannot wait to read
the next I need it now. So if you've been reading the series when I say who
book it is you will want it to as it is Danta’s book.

will leave off here. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I did. If you do
like this book, please consider leaving a review. The Authors really like it

Chapter One

Liam's completion of flight training had rather fortuitous timing. Liam was one of the members of Lex's security team before Darren moved in. Darren snagged the other Lycan on the way to the airport with the subtle threat to "move your ass and don't breathe a word to anyone." Darren looked out the window of the Konstantine jet and didn't see ocean, but he didn't know how close they were to Dublin Airport.

Reading Liam's thoughts would have been easy enough, if Darren hadn't happily discovered that he could block that ability. So, he hadn't been subjected to the "have you lost your fucking mind" lecture that Liam likely received from Lex. Or the "you let anything happen to him, I'll kill you, myself" that undoubtedly followed said lecture.

Darren spent the entirety of the flight thinking of his mate. The pain in her voice, on her face, and the tears in her eyes, all as a result of Darren not claiming her. Pain, he had his own. Not claiming her was a physical, mental hell--it was pain from head to toe. But, he had reasoned that he'd rather live with that pain, than put Cass through one second of his impressive--or not--collection of screw-ups. Not to mention, all the bullshit that came with being King.

I'd rather cut off my own head than cause her pain like I saw that day.

Which is why they were over European airspace, because Cass was in Ireland. She left to escapehim.

Because seeing me hurt her.

"Darren, we're ten minutes out from Dublin."

Liam's voice cleared his guilt-filled thoughts. He ran his hands through his hair and realized he needed to go splash some water on his face. "Thanks."

"No problem."

A minute later, he stood in front of the mirror and frowned. One of his buddies in college looked like he was in a perpetual hangover. Darren's roommate used to tease the guy, telling him that he looked like he'd been ridden hard and put away wet. That saying pretty much summed up the reflection in the mirror.

Maybe I should stop off and get a haircut, buy a new shirt and jeans.

He probably would do that, if it didn't take much time. His primary objective was to find Cass and get them back to the plane as soon as possible. Hell, he might as well tell Liam to file a return flight plan for, what, five hours from now? Yeah, that should do it. He hated the thought of claiming his mate in the bedroom on the plane, but damned if he was going to wait to get back to Raleigh. And, they wouldn't be in Ireland for very long. Oh no. In and out, that was his plan. They'd be back in no time.

***

Liam kept up with Darren's footsteps, barely.

"Still don't understand why you wouldn't want another beer. That may have been the best I've ever had. We should take a European beer tasting trip, just for comparison, though. German ales are pretty damned good." They'd only gone in the last bar because Darren caught Cass's scent.

"Not interested." Glancing around the crowded Temple Bar section of Dublin, Darren wondered why Cass would be there. She was private, definitely not the type to hang out in tourist spots.

"Or we could just stay here and sample whiskey. All the whiskey."

Technically, that didn't sound like too bad of a plan, if he weren't searching for his missing mate. "You should get on your knees and thank God that you can't get cirrhosis."

Liam snorted just as Darren thought he'd, again, picked up on Cass's scent. He froze mid stride and almost took out a group of people. Peering inside the closest bar, he inhaled deeply and looked for her glossy black hair. Nada.

Shit.

Darren turned, making a complete circle so he could visualize everything around him. His frustration was growing. Cass was so close, and he needed to see her. Feel her. Wrap her in his arms. Drop to his knees and apologize for being a colossal ass. Spend the next century begging her forgiveness. Then spend the rest of his life making her happy.

The sounds of barf splattering the pavement shook him out of his thoughts.

"This"--he pointed down at the moaning human in front of him--"is what all the whiskey gets you."

Liam glanced down with disdain as they stepped around the human. "Not me." He waved a negligent hand. "Higher tolerance and all that."

Material brushed his arm, and Darren snarled as his head snapped around. "Hey, do you mind holding my jacket while I tie my shoe?"

What the fuck? Darren snatched the jacket and Liam bent, after casting a pointed glare toward Darren's hands. Claws had already punched through the tips, and if he were a betting person, he'd put money on his eyes glowing. Taking a deep breath and closing his eyes, he slipped on his polarized Ray Bans, covered both fists with the jacket and willed himself to calm.

"No problem."

Biggest white lie ever. If Darren spent two more seconds out there without Liam's assistance, he'd likely have shifted and torn a bloody path through the Temple Bar district.

They needed to get out of public, check into a room and Darren needed to sleep off any jet lag. Then come sunrise, he'd try again.

Liam stood and cast a worried glance at Darren. "Okay?"

Not in the slightest. "Fine. Let's get something to eat, go find a room, and search again tomorrow."

Liam almost seemed to slouch in relief. "Sounds good. We'll hit the roads in the morning."

He confirmed that with a small nod. And I'll spend another sleepless night without her.
